Alumni have plenty to offer

This weekend can be more than a time for reconnecting. It also offers a rare opportunity for alumni to form new connections with current students and for current students to learn from former Phoenix who have been “out in the real world” for as little as a few months or for as long as a few decades.

Gun violence panel triggers debate on national culture

After more than an hour of gun violence discussion Wednesday evening in Upstairs Lakeside at Elon University, many audience and panel members lingered to continue a discussion cut short because of time limits. Despite the audience filling less than half the seats available, audience members had no shortage of questions for the four faculty panelists. Much of the discussion focused on the culture surrounding guns in the United States and its possible effects on violence, rather than a debate of gun control measures. That conversation built off the current momentum of the national conversation in the wake of recent shootings at U.S. colleges.

Nicole Dennion returns for Elon women's soccer Senior Day

Emotions always run high on a Senior Day, but they were cranked up an extra notch at the Oct. 11 Elon University women’s soccer team's match. Senior forward Nicole Dennion, former Southern Conference Player of the Year who missed last year while battling cancer, made her first appearance in two years by taking the opening kickoff in the lineup for the Phoenix. After kicking off the match, she ran to the sideline for a substitute to applause from both teams and fans. “An indescribable level [of emotion],” said head coach Chris Neal. “It was really good having her here.”

A stroke of anatomical genius

On any other night, the sight of three students’ exposed muscles and bones would have caused a panic among patrons at The Fat Frogg Bar & Grill. But at 7 p.m. Oct. 13, Elon University Physician Assistant Program seniors Lisa Nichols, Boyd Vicars and Kim Heald smiled and joked as they walked between the restaurant’s tables, flaunting arms and legs painted with realistic representations of the underlying muscular and skeletal systems.

'American Horror Story: Hotel': a whole new level of shock and scandal

Forget the UGG boots, Pumpkin Spice Lattes and flannels — I know it’s fall when the season premieres of my favorite shows start popping up again, and that means it’s time to stock up on the tissues. The season of ugly sobbing and excessive hyperventilation is upon us, my friends, and no other show can get us into that creepy, soul-sucking, Halloween mindset like "American Horror Story."
